ST FRANCIS MEDICAL CENTER OF LYNWOOD FOUNDATION Information

The employees and physicians of Verity Health System are proud to carry on a long history of serving diverse communities as a regional health system in California. With four hospitals in Northern California and two in Southern California, Verity partners with our community physicians to provide quality, compassionate care to our patients and their family members. Before coming under the leadership of Verity Health System in December 2015, the hospitals and medical foundation were led by the Daughters of Charity. The Daughters began their healthcare mission in California in 1858 with the opening of Los Angeles Infirmary, now known as St. Vincent Medical Center. The Daughters ministered to ill, poverty-stricken individuals for more than 150 years. The Daughters of Charity Health System was formed in 2002. Today, Verity Health System seeks to build upon the rich legacy left by the Daughters of Charity Health System through a transformation of our health care practices. That work includes a focus on more efficient delivery of quality health care and an enhanced alignment with our physician partners. With more than 8,000 employees and physicians, the System is governed by the independent Verity Health System Board of Directors. It is a non-profit, non-religious health care system with 1,650 inpatient beds, six active emergency rooms and a host of medical specialties, committed to providing community benefit through a variety of community-based outreach programs and wellness activities. In addition, the Verity hospitals benefit from a range of philanthropic gifts generously given in support of their caring mission. Verity Health is starting an exciting new chapter of care. If you want to make a difference and value compassion as a part of caregiving, we encourage you to apply.
